Legatron. Two clutch kicks to tie and win the game. Enough said.

Hekker. That pass was also clutch as hell, and shifted the momentum.

Wade. I know he's been much maligned, but when it mattered, his defense stepped up. I'm so glad we have him.
 
Zuerline....a 48 trader to tie and a 57 yarder in OT to win? He should get all three.

Suh....After being the worst in the league vs the run all year Dallas average about 3 YPC and NO average 1.7 YPC. Makes one wonder why he was on autopilot all year, but, he has come alive in the playoffs.

Goff....difficult place to play and a bad start.
Bouncing back from a pick on his second pass. Two stellar throws. Dropping a perfect pass to Cooks on the sideline for a big gainer and his throw on 3rd down on the run to Everett. He may miss some throws but dude has ice on his veins. Once and for all will fans please get that a guy doesn't have to be a "rah rah look at me" guy to be a leader.

Holding the Saints to a FG after that pic was huge as well.
 
1. Hekker - Big 4th down conversion, 2 great holds on 2 poor snaps
2. Greg - Hit the 2 big field goals
3. Goff - Regained composure and made all of the throws needed to win this game. A young QB going into a big time playing environment like that and managing the offense is no system QB...that's just a good QB.

I with you here on Suh. But IMO the "Charge of Ndamukong Suh" occurred @ the same time Wade went with Suh playing the 5 tech post on the edge that made the difference the last two playoff games. Wade had all three DL flipflopping between all the posts. When Wade went to the 4 down DL'ers Suh was mostly on the edge with Donald & Brockers inside.

It's what we here in ROD have been discussing the last previous months of Ram games. Brockers plays better inside too. Donald inside when he can get one on one blocking can't be stopped from flying forward into the face of the RB & QB. I expect to see more of Suh 5 tech DE/ Brockers in the middle Nose/ Donald 3 Tech in the SB.

All of these are reasonable for game balls. Have they ever shown the locker room presentation? Was there one? I usually watch the game ball presentations on twitter but missed seeing this one. Maybe the NFC trophy presentation trumped it.

The team across the board. Everyone contributed.

Oh.....and to show there's no hard feelings.... Give one to Asshole Face too for playcalls that helped us out. His clock management skills are on a level we've unfortunately seen before...… (and it rhymes w/ Misher…..)
 
What , no love for the ref. Gurley (photoshopped) swapped jersies with an official
 
Suh....After being the worst in the league vs the run all year Dallas average about 3 YPC and NO average 1.7 YPC. Makes one wonder why he was on autopilot all year, but, he has come alive in the playoffs.
I honestly think it is the whole line helping in this case. Yes Suh has certainly picked it up. It seems like AD is just playing a little more positional meaning more reward less risk. Staying at home a bit and that is creating a better chance for Suh to do his thing. It is subtle but it is working.
Either way it is really nice to see the guys we picked up to help playing better and the D as a whole helping out the O
